Step By Step Calculation

Step 1: Understand Division Terms

  • Dividend: The number being divided (66).
  • Divisor: The number dividing the dividend (5).
  • Quotient: The whole-number result of division.
  • Remainder: The amount left over after division.

Step 2: Set Up the Division

Calculate 66 ÷ 5 to determine how many times 5 fits fully into 66.

Step 3: Perform the Division

66 ÷ 5=13.2

  • Whole-number quotient: 13 (the number of times 5 fits completely into 66).

Step 4: Verify the Quotient

Multiply the quotient by the divisor to check:

13 x 5 = 65

Step 5: Calculate the Remainder

Subtract this product from the original dividend:

66 - 65 = 1

  • Remainder: 1 (the amount left over).

Final Answer

66 ÷ 5 = 13 R 1

  • 5 fits into 66 exactly 13 times with a remainder of 1.
